Spreadsheet

Spreadsheet is a spreadsheet app built with Vala and GTK, and especially for elementary OS.

It was originally developed by Gelez, who wrote:

One day I was lost on the Internet, I found this great mockup of a spreadsheet app, and I decided to make it real.

The goal of this project is to build a spreadsheet app that perfectly fits in elementary OS. Only CSV files are supported at this moment.

Reporting Bugs or Suggesting Improvements

Simply create a new issue describing your problem and how to reproduce or your suggestion. If you are not used to do, this section is for you.

Writing Some Code

Before coding, fork the project and build it as explained above.

We use Vala, as many other elementary OS apps, so it would be better if you know a bit about it, but you don't have to be an expert.

Before writing some code, let the others know on what you'll be working. The best way to do that is to go to the related issue (or create one if any related issue doesn't exist yet), and to say that you are working on it. Then start a new branch on your fork, based on main (and be sure main is up-to-date). You can start coding.

We follow the coding style of elementary OS and its Human Interface Guidelines in our code, please try to respect them. But there are two differences:

• We also name our namespaces after the folder they are in (e.g. Spreadsheet.Services.Formula.AST is in src/Services/Formula/AST)
• The project is licensed under the MIT license unlike most of the projects in the elementary ecosystem. Make sure you will NEVER bring codes licensed under copyleft!

Translating This App

We accept translations through Pull Requests. If you're not sure how to do, the guideline I made might be helpful.
